Now, this one is funny after ~2 days:

# btrfs balance status x
Balance on 'x' is running
0 out of about 2797 chunks balanced (533 considered), 100% left

# btrfs balance cancel x
ERROR: balance cancel on 'x' failed - Read-only file system

So the balance is still running, consuming 100% of one cpu, but now that
the file system is read-only, nothing can be written to disk. The
interval of ~30s between error messages in dmesg tells me that this
might be interval of periodic comit according to
